Two words.

Lithuanian Plates.

I cant reg a uk car with them can I?! Can I get points for displaying incorrect plates now? I heard plenty of people do it in london to try and avoid the congestion charge and risk the 30 quid fine, but I thought it would be most likely that they would hand out points.

Do you think that I'd knowingly help you to subverty the course of justice on this of all forums?

I missed off the tongue in cheek smiley.

Bad luck anyway - 82 in a 70 is hardly excessive...

If you have an address in France, there is nothing to stop you from registering your car there and declaring it permanently exported to the DVLA.
You can insure it in France, they don't have road tax (it's included in fuel tax there) and you can bring it back here so long as it goes out of the country at least once every 6 months, although how they check that is anyone's guess.
Do you have a friend in France?

The court has the discretion not to award a ban if it decides that exceptional hardship would result from such a sentence..

Yes, I agree, getting points for 82 is rather excessive.

getting points for driving at a safe speed anywhere is excessive. nowhere did the OP say they were driving too fast for the conditions so we must assume it was safe.

21 and facing a totting up ban - your observation is inadequate for the speeds you drive at. I always ignore arbitrary speed limits and drive at the speed I consider safe for the conditions, but if you do that you have to have strong observation and anticipation skills or you're going to get a lot of points.

22now..
you come across as the type of guy that thinks he does things better than everyone else....
I guess my 82 was totally unsafe and if I was more observant I would not have any .
out of interest,what do you drive??

You make me sound like a nutter for doing 82!
